Summary

A legendary beer barrel known as pH1, the OG vessel that helped birth wild and sour ales in America, just got a new chapter—this time at Off Color Brewing in Chicago. After 14 months of aging, brewmaster John Laffler nervously bottled the ale, fearing oxygen or yeast disruption, but the result? A stunningly complex, floral masterpiece that proves patience and tradition pay off. Each brewery that’s touched pH1 leaves its microbial fingerprint, turning this barrel into a living, breathing history book of American craft beer.
